1962 Topps #200 Mantle with upside down back

Well, the thread title gives you a description of the card. What I need to know is how common of an error this is, and whether or not it affects the card's value.
I've looked though a lot of 62's, and this is the only card I have ever seen with this error.
I wrote to Beckett regarding this, and their reply was that it was very common, and wouldn't even be mentioned if I sent the card to them for grading. I just have a hard time believing this. I mean, I googled, and nothing about this error popped up, so I figured if anyone might now, it would be here. Thanks for replying,
Wes

Pictures would help.

Well, I actually don't think they would. The card is normal as far as what's printed on it, it's just that it was turned upside-down when the second side was printed. I guess I could try to post a vid showing the card side-by-side with a normal Mantle, face-up, and show how their backs become the opposite of one another when I turn them both over. The difference isn't what's on the card, but rather how it's oriented.

Here are a couple of pics. Unfortunately my computer camera doesn't seem to focus very well.
The seems to have water damage, and perhaps because of this the back has a green tint to it.
Has anyone heard of fakes having this error? This card was in a lot that I bought on eBay last year.

Use your phone camera to take a picture of the card in front of a mirror. That way we can see both sides at the same time.

Wes,

It’s possible the card is no good. Corners that round with no other wear is hard to have happen naturally. Might be a reprint.

Hope not; good luck.

That card is normal. Mine is the exact same way.
Unless you are saying the back is 180 degrees from normal.
All the cards on the sheet would be the same as well.
